AURORA: Adaptive Unified Representation for Robust Ultrasound Analysis

Ufaq Khan, L. D. M. S. Sai Teja, Ayuba Shakiru et al.

Ultrasound images vary widely across scanners, operators, and anatomical targets, which often causes models trained in one setting to generalize poorly to new hospitals and clinical conditions. The Foundation Model Challenge for Ultrasound Image Analysis (FMC-UIA) reflects this difficulty by requiring a single model to handle multiple tasks, including segmentation, detection, classification, and landmark regression across diverse organs and datasets. We propose a unified multi-task framework based on a transformer visual encoder from the Qwen3-VL family. Intermediate token features are projected into spatial feature maps and fused using a lightweight multi-scale feature pyramid, enabling both pixel-level predictions and global reasoning within a shared representation. Each task is handled by a small task-specific prediction head, while training uses task-aware sampling and selective loss balancing to manage heterogeneous supervision and reduce task imbalance. Our method is designed to be simple to optimize and adaptable across a wide range of ultrasound analysis tasks. The performance improved from 67% to 85% on the validation set and achieved an average score of 81.84% on the official test set across all tasks. The code is publicly available at: https://github.com/saitejalekkala33/FMCUIA-ISBI.git

DAMASHA: Detecting AI in Mixed Adversarial Texts via Segmentation with Human-interpretable Attribution

L. D. M. S. Sai Teja, N. Siva Gopala Krishna, Ufaq Khan et al.

In the age of advanced large language models (LLMs), the boundaries between human and AI-generated text are becoming increasingly blurred. We address the challenge of segmenting mixed-authorship text, that is identifying transition points in text where authorship shifts from human to AI or vice-versa, a problem with critical implications for authenticity, trust, and human oversight. We introduce a novel framework, called Info-Mask for mixed authorship detection that integrates stylometric cues, perplexity-driven signals, and structured boundary modeling to accurately segment collaborative human-AI content. To evaluate the robustness of our system against adversarial perturbations, we construct and release an adversarial benchmark dataset Mixed-text Adversarial setting for Segmentation (MAS), designed to probe the limits of existing detectors. Beyond segmentation accuracy, we introduce Human-Interpretable Attribution (HIA overlays that highlight how stylometric features inform boundary predictions, and we conduct a small-scale human study assessing their usefulness. Across multiple architectures, Info-Mask significantly improves span-level robustness under adversarial conditions, establishing new baselines while revealing remaining challenges. Our findings highlight both the promise and limitations of adversarially robust, interpretable mixed-authorship detection, with implications for trust and oversight in human-AI co-authorship.

AGIC: Attention-Guided Image Captioning to Improve Caption Relevance

L. D. M. S. Sai Teja, Ashok Urlana, Pruthwik Mishra

Despite significant progress in image captioning, generating accurate and descriptive captions remains a long-standing challenge. In this study, we propose Attention-Guided Image Captioning (AGIC), which amplifies salient visual regions directly in the feature space to guide caption generation. We further introduce a hybrid decoding strategy that combines deterministic and probabilistic sampling to balance fluency and diversity. To evaluate AGIC, we conduct extensive experiments on the Flickr8k and Flickr30k datasets. The results show that AGIC matches or surpasses several state-of-the-art models while achieving faster inference. Moreover, AGIC demonstrates strong performance across multiple evaluation metrics, offering a scalable and interpretable solution for image captioning.
